Master Harker
Solo artist, Master Harker has been playing his own brand of gloomy acoustic folk for a long time. Experimenting with a diverse range of acoustic instruments,electronic gizmos and home-made musical devices, Master Harker takes genres including jazz, flamenco and bluegrass and turns them on their head. Combining a DIY punk ethic with a lo-fi sound, Master Harker makes unsettling but very human music
